VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE MOVE AGAINST MALAYSIAN PM?

PETALING JAYA,Malaysia -  PKR’s Petaling Jaya Selatan MP Hee Loy Sian has submitted a historical no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak in the Order Paper for the Parliament meeting starting tomorrow.

The motion is listed as the 25th motion out of 28 scheduled for debate.

The motion, which is in relation to the RM2.6bil “donation” deposited into Najib’s personal account, however, is unlikely to be debated because the House usually deals with government business first.

• Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said the Opposition had the right to table a no-confidence motion but Barisan Nasional would oppose it.
• Dr Ahmad Zahid, who is also Barisan’s chief whip, said the ruling coalition’s elected representatives would be ready to oppose such motion.

“It is up to the Speaker and Dewan Rakyat’s administration to manage motions put in the docket.

“However, procedures state that priority will be given to government matters,” he said yesterday when commenting on the no-confidence motion tabled against Najib.

He said the Speaker also had the power to reject or approve any motion.
